Hi Everyone. The second Berks Run of the year will take place on Sunday 3rd March.

Departing at 6.45am from the public car park next to Guy Salmon Jaguar/Land Rover in Ascot High Street.

The Route:
It will take us on some brilliant driving roads with a nice mix of A and B roads, country lanes, some twisty, some challenging, and a short stint on the motorway before arriving at our destination. Although we start in the county of Berkshire, we do stray into the Hampshire borders, but I'm sure that doesn't matter.

The run finishes at Fleet Services M3 (London bound) at around 9.00-9.30 am. There we can grab some breakfast and an it will also be a good opportunity to take pictures and check out each others cars.

There is also a comfort break about 1hr into the run.

--Arrive as close to 6.20am as possible as we will be leaving at 6.45am sharp--

Meeting here:
The public car park next to the Guy Salmon JLR showroom
Jaguar Land Rover
71-75 High Street
Ascot
Berkshire
SL5 7HS

Finish here:
Fleet Services M3 (London bound between Junctions 4a-5)
Fleet
Hampshire
GU51 1AA

The route will be kept off line and emailed to those attending including a sat-nav file to download.

Sorry chaps im going to have to cancel as well, Just stuck some new wheels and tyres on the mx5, and they are proper genuine ditch finders, don't feel comfortable pushing the car at all at the moment on these shocking tyres.
